Turns out the incompetent, stupid people running the government are actually more stupid and incompetent than we feared.

I am so horrified by the dismantling of USAID. I can't believe it. It is one of the most unchristian things that they have done. 💔

I'm not a lesbian and I find Trump and RFK Jr grotesque. How these women think either of them are charismatic or handsome is mind boggling. 🤮

She is totally lying about the Ghislane Maxwell move. The BOP would have never moved her without direction from the White House. There has never been a sex offender in a Fed prison camp before. It’s against BOP policy.

Here’s who Marco Rubio is: when the Parkland school shooting happened I was living in Florida and had three children in high school. Naturally I was very upset about this horrific shooting. I decided to write to my senator (Rubio) to see if he would do anything to stop this awful violence. He never answered. Over the course of a year, I wrote over 100 letters to him. I never got any acknowledgment that he received these letters. He couldn’t even ask a staffer to email me some form letter about how concerned he was and how he was working on it. He never cared about Floridians and he doesn’t care about Americans.

Rubio looks like a guy that knows he sold his soul too cheap and is never getting it back.

Elon Musk grew up in apartheid South Africa. It’s no shock to me that he is the mastermind behind the dismantling of USAID to black Africans.

Susie Wiles has shown herself to not be the adult in the room but to be just as vile and misdirected as all the rest of the cabinet. A stain on the USA and the entire world. These people need to be brought to task

"Cynics understand the cost of everything and the value of nothing." The Republican party and the Trump administration reflect this perfectly.
